Pathway to Campus Enrollment

PaCE: combining online and residential learning

Pathway to Campus Enrollment, or PaCE, provides freshmen with the opportunity to start their UF degree online and then transition to campus in order to complete an undergraduate degree. Our campus has limited physical space to accommodate the many qualified students who desire a UF education. Through PaCE, we are now able to expand our admission offers to more of the best and brightest students. Applicants are considered for PaCE through the regular freshman application.

The PaCE program offers an excellent academic experience, combining online and campus-based learning. Students selected for PaCE will complete at minimum 15 credit hours and two semesters through UF Online. After completing a total of 60 and completing all prerequisite courses for your major, students may request to transition to campus.

Like its name, you are able to proceed at your own PaCE, on your own schedule and from wherever you wish to study.
